These two source records are a starting point for checking specifications, not a ranked shortlist or a recommendation for your machine. Neither record confirms airflow at the machine connection. Use the extraction planner to identify what you still need to ask.

- Check the inside and outside dimensions of the actual mating connectors.
- Ask about the complete installed system, including hose runs, separators and filter loading.
- Confirm the correct bags, filters, electrical supply and socket load.
